Leveling is slowing down quite a bit and it's getting difficult to find groups to level with even on the 'ideal' classes. Events could be done on random days, on one weekend a month, or even a whole week
  • Rotating 500/400/300/200/100% bonuses on mob type, change it every week or every other week
  • Straight bonus exp day
  • Extra bonus exp for eggs / solo leveling
  • Bonuses for leveling in dungeons that aren't DF
  • Larger bonus for grouping non healer/buffer/shield/pbae class (ex, +50% exp for each ranger/NS in the group)
  • (there's a lot of different ways to mix and match things, it would be cool to encourage people to level in new areas with different classes)

Also consider cutting the overall exp needed to level as the server matures. Right now it takes a good 30-50+ hours for the average person to hit 50, and it would be nice to see that toned down to 15-30. This would help get newer players going and keep older players around.

Wasn't there a free level system in DAoC at one point? I'd like that here... Like just a free level every 2 days on a character if you've atleast gained a level between them..

One idea I had and told some WB's about was to do something similar to the mob +% bonus but instead do it towards zones. underused zones get a fatty bonus for people to level in, this could include dungeons also. I think it will help a lot since most people will get a new experience leveling their new char if they're going to never before/uncommon xp zones. I have lvled 3 chars to 50 so far and there are still some zones+most dungeons that I never stepped foot in, if they added this underused zone xp bonus it would make it fun and a new experience lvling my 4th. Originally when they added the mob bonus it was like this, I got a new experience lvling on different mobs I have never tried on live etc. I think that's important to keep the server healthy and promoting people to try new things/play more.
